a, b & c show a largely noncontrast enhancing tumor. Head size measurements are performed on the FLAIR sequence. The axial coordinates for head size are shown in figure a. NovoTAL mapping was performed exclusively using figure b axial and figure c coronal FLAIR images. In the axial view figure b, a reference frame is drawn on the slice demonstrating the greatest extent of FLAIR abnormality. Tumor coordinates are obtained from the right frame to the near and far edges of FLAIR abnormality at the discretion of the treating physician. In figure c, coronal tumor location coordinates are obtained from a reference frame drawn at the level of the scalp which extends inferiorly to the lowest margin of temporal lobe. Distances to the tumor margin are drawn at the discretion of the treating physician to include all the region that is thought to contain active tumor
